Abstract

Intimate partner violence (IPV) by women against men is a controversial topic in the research, practice, and policy fields. In this chapter, the history of the research on IPV by women against men, the controversy regarding this research, and current information on its prevalence is reviewed. Discussion centers on different methods that have been used to understand men’s experiences in these relationships and research conducted during the past 10 years. Emphasis is placed on the men’s mental and physical health, and the impact that this type of IPV may have on the children involved, as well as the experiences that men have had when they try to seek help. The chapter concludes with the implications of this burgeoning area of research on current policy and practice for helping victims and perpetrators of IPV.
